Ma Po Tofu, a classic dish from the Sichuan province of China, inspired this recipe. The original is made with soft tofu and ground pork or beef with plenty of heat from dried chile peppers and Sichuan peppercorns. Portobello mushrooms stand in for the meat in our vegetarian version and convenient jarred chile-garlic sauce gives it plenty of kick. Serve with brown rice.

Add any vegetables that suit your fancy to this Asian-inspired kosher chicken soup and serve over noodles for a hearty meal. What is so obliging about this hearty chicken soup is that you can add any vegetables that suit your fancy: Napa or Savoy cabbage, mushrooms, Chinese broccoli, broccolini, onions, leeks, mustard or turnip greens, celery or whatever tickles your bonnet. Just be sure that you don't overcook the vegetables. Spice it up with Asian-style chili sauce, such as sriracha, and/or serve the soup over noodles to make it a more substantial main dish.
